Today, I took my printer to work because the one in my office is broken. When I tried to leave, my boss stopped me and accused me of stealing it from the office. Nobody would believe me when I explained. Now my boss has a new printer. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boss entrusted me with his car to run an errand, as I usually take the bus. I managed to get there and back safely before someone slammed into me while I was re-entering the lot, causing major damage. It was his wife, who thought I was a car thief. FML
Today, I overheard my boss stressing out over finding a replacement for me. I didn't know I was leaving. FML
Today, my company was having a huge party so I went to work dressed in my best outfit. During lunch break, my boss said to me, "You really missed out on something yesterday, it was great fun!" FML
Today, I was told it was inconvenient for me to take lunch breaks, because someone else has to answer the phones and no one else wants to actually do any work. FML
Today, my car broke down. My colleague came to get me and then, later, my husband picked me up from work. We went to collect my abandoned car, but it was gone. It took 10 minutes of me panicking and thinking it had been stolen before he crumpled in laughter and told me he'd already collected it. FML
Today, I found out that mishearing my boss and laughing at what I thought he said can make him think I'm high and nearly force me to submit to a drug test. FML
Today, I was fired for having a haircut that was 'inappropriate for the workplace'. I have alopecia. My boss told me to stop making up excuses. FML
Today, my boss admitted that he seriously regrets hiring me, but can't really do anything about it because that would make the senior management question his judgment, making him look bad. So he's just 'putting up' with me. FML
Today, I came back to work after being out for a week. As I walked to the back of the store, I threw my hands up and yelled, "I'm back bitches". Right after I said it, I noticed my boss was behind me. I was then taken to the office and wrote up for foul language on my first day back. FML
Today, while battling a severe flu, I was forced to come to work by my manager. Upon arrival, I discovered that a colleague he likes who should be covering for me is out today. The reason? Her shoes hurt. FML

If you don't care about losing your job, I'd report him for theft

You should've at least told him you were bringing you own printer in.

Laxative prank revenge?

OP could get fired if the boss found out it was him. If he doesn't get fired he could buy another printer.

I'm wondering why you didn't just inform your boss and/or IT section that the printer wasn't working rather than bring your own in.

I'm with others here. It seems a very silly to bring your own in without even letting the boss or someone know that your office printer was broken. Otherwise you would A. have someone who can back up your story or more likely B. A new printer arranged by and paid for by the company. It's kind of both YDI and YLS.

Sorry, another thought occurred to me after my editing time was up. Why oh why OP did you not just show your boss the broken printer after he wouldn't believe you! Surely you did not throw it out because if you did then you most definitely deserve to have your own printer confiscated in return.

Show him the broken printer. And ask for a new one. And an apology.

Yeah, I wouldn't have bought my own personal printer in. I would flagged the issue up with the office printer up with your boss or IT and made them buy a new office printer.

I'm guessing that your office has no Security Cameras that spotted you lugging it in? Or is this bullshit?
